Often, when an artist makes technically complex work, the final artwork gives little indication of the enormous degree of preparation required by the artist’s process. This is certainly the case with Lutter, whose practice of using a camera obscura requires considerable planning, and, in the case of her exposures, time and patience. For this reason, we’re especially pleased to share a behind-the-scenes video of Lutter’s residency at LACMA that was produced by Sotheby’s, a major supporter of the commission. In it, you’ll hear from the artist herself, as well Patrice Marandel, curator emeritus and former Chief Curator of European Art, and Michael Govan, CEO and Wallis Annenberg Director.
